Once again the group has come through with flying colors! I have received 
many sources for parts, several of which were completely new to me. Since most 
everyone suggested not only replacing the electrolytics, but also the diodes and 
resistors, so I decided to go with the great retrofit kit made by Harbach 
Electronics that Jason, N1SU, told me about. The RK-AC4 kit includes everything 
needed to completely rebuild the power supply, and the design places everything 
neatly on a PC board! This should be a fun little project for me, and, at the 
same time, will get me a nice new power supply to boot :-)). These newer rigs 
like the T-4XB are going to be great fun for me to learn. Since I am used to 
pre 1945 technology, (dealing mostly with Hallicrafters and military equipment 
from that era), the next step in technology is going to be an interesting 
change of pace. Anyway, thanks again to everyone for the great advise and 
resources.
